Nancy Christine Mitchell Swift, 63, of Pelham, Alabama, died Wednesday, March 14, 2018. Born on December 11, 1954, in Amory, she was a daughter of Everett and Betty Mitchell.
She graduated from Hatley High School and went on to receive her degree in Nursing from Mississippi University for Women in 1975.

"In the end, It's not the years in your life that count; it's the life in your years." (Abraham Lincoln) Nancy had a passion and great love for her family, friends, church, and co-workers at UAB Highlands Hospital. She loved to travel, read, and play piano. Wherever she went, she never met a stranger - just loved people and life. Nancy always greeted you with a smile and a hug and never left you without an "I love you!"
In 2006, Nancy met Tony Swift and they were married in August 2007. She is survived by her husband; daughter, Angie (Kerry) Mitchell; sons, Chad (Melanie) Posey and Chase Swift; stepmother, Clytee Mitchell; brother, Dennis (Debbie) Mitchell; sisters, Melissa (Keith) Lindsey, and Krisha (Buddy) Mims; step-brother, Steve Flynn; two beloved grandsons, a host of nieces and nephews, sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law.
